A true tale of man and his best friend or more like a toddler and his best friend lol

What are friends for but to help you out – especially when you’re in dire need of a snack. A viral video shows a toddler in his nappies position his faithful pet dog by a fridge in an attempt to score some mid-day munchies. The roughly 40-second long video has been viewed over 57 million times on Facebook since being posted less than a week ago.

The video begins with the toddler try to position himself on the dog in an attempt to reach the fridge door. As he hoists himself up on the dog’s bag, he tugs at the fridge door. Finally, it opens. The toddler positions himself comfortably in front of the fridge filled with food, while perched on the dog’s back, trying to figure out what to eat first perhaps.

“When you need help…you find out who your friends are! (Until you don’t give them any food and then they leave you hanging!),” jokes Rob Herbert in a caption accompanying the video. Since June 15, the video has been shared over 107,000 times and has collected over 79,000 reactions.

“Thanks everyone! I call them my twins for a reason…they’re usually up to no good together…What I wasn’t fast enough to catch on video was Maverick pulling Leroy by the collar over to the fridge to get him in place. He obviously had a plan,” writes Carrie Ellen Harden, presumably the woman filming, on Facebook.

Of course the video has drawn concern from some viewers. “Do not teach your kids that it’s OK to step and walk on dogs teach them that they deserve to be respected as well,” writes Dee Driver.
